Holy stone with former pilgrimage church

Highlight • Historical Site

One of the most beautiful cup stones in Austria. Ball stone chain, dowsing rod path, church ruins and Holy Stone lookout point.

From the rather wobbly bridge you have a wonderful view of the water and the rushing weirs.

A very steep section of the path with rough paving. Pushing is popular for many.

View of the Thaya Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Thaya (Dyje) can only be seen hidden, meandering. Interesting landscape, but steep climb.

Masaryk Square, Znojmo

Highlight • Settlement

Znojmo is always worth a detour. The location of the old town above the Dyje (Thaya) alone is fantastic. The view from the opposite mountain slope is of course even more impressive.

Very steep climb from the Dyje (Thaya) to the old town of Znojmo. Noteworthy views.

This part of the route is a bit more demanding. Due to the sandy, rocky ground, a mountain bike would be recommended. Otherwise you can enjoy a great panoramic view over the old town of Znojmo.

July 14, 2024,Fahrradtour von Retz bis Znaim(CZ) und wieder retour...50 Kilometer.
Beautiful but very strenuous... the gradients and ground conditions are not for everyone 🙄

A cross-border (Ö, CZ) bike tour. The majority of the route followed directly along the EV13 "The Iron Curtain Trail".

This bike tour was a wonderful experience in the Thaya National Park. The Thaya river, the suspension bridge over the Thaya, and the deep views of the Thaya were worth seeing.

September 7, 2025,Znojmo - Sobes
Today we first cycled along pleasant country lanes to the road to Havraniky. From there, we continued on a sandy road to Popice. Here, we made a highly recommended detour to Selasfielduv kamen, which offered a magnificent view of the Thaya Valley. We continued on asphalt to Konice and then on trails more suitable for mountain bikes to Znojmo. Again …
